Find experienced child care providers in Oakland, CA

Hi, I am a experienced, reliable private nanny currently seeking a part-time position within 15 miles of Walnut Creek/Pleasant Hill/Lafayette area. As a mom of three and a proud grandma, caring for children truly comes naturally to me. I have over 35 years of experience caring for children of all ages, including 12 years supporting children with special needs. I'm warm, patient and engaging, and I love being a part of a child's daily life whether that's reading, spending time outdoors, or supporting routines that help them feel secure and confident. I have excellent references, a drivers licence and I can assist in light household tasks, meal prep, errands, children's laundry and helping keep daily routines running smoothly for busy families. My rate is $32-$40 an hour depending on the job and responsibilities. I prefer a private pay arrangement and I'm open to discussing guaranteed hours for the right family.

Hello! I’m Sathiya, a cheerful, dedicated, and detail-oriented nanny, babysitter, pet sitter, and family assistant originally from Bangkok, Thailand, now happily based in San Francisco since 2019. With over 10 years of hands-on experience raising my own children and more than 4–5 years in professional caregiving, I specialize in nurturing, patient, and attentive care for children of all ages including newborns. I take pride in creating a warm, safe, and engaging environment where little ones can thrive. My clients consistently describe me as trustworthy, reliable, and thoughtful, and many are happy to recommend my services. I’m currently open to occasional evening (after 6 PM) and weekend roles. Along with childcare, I’m also available to assist with pet sitting, house sitting, and household management from keeping things tidy and organized to managing vendors or overseeing home maintenance. I genuinely enjoy helping families run their homes smoothly and efficiently. I bring professionalism, kindness, and care to everything I do, and I believe in creating calm, supportive systems that make family life a little easier. I’d be happy to provide my resume, references, background check, and vaccination records upon request. Looking forward to connecting and supporting your family with warmth and excellence! Warmly, Sathiya

I am the ultimate babysitter because I am a mother myself! If anyone knows what kids love, It's me. I know how to cook, play pretend, play tag, hide and seek, visit the local swimming pool, swim, teach swimming, read favorite books, take lots of pictures, bird watch, go on day trips, visit museums, the zoo and the list goes on. Being a kid at heart really helps to connect with children. I rarely meet a child who doesn't like me!

Hello! I'm a dedicated childcare provider with over 25 years of paid experience, specializing in infant care and children from first grade and up. As a mother to a wonderful 20-year-old daughter, I understand firsthand the trust parents place in caregivers, and now that my own child is grown, I'm excited to share my passion for nurturing young minds. My previous family trusted me for 16 wonderful years until their children outgrew needing care, which speaks to my reliability and the meaningful relationships I build with families. I'm comfortable with all aspects of infant care including feeding, diaper changes, and sleep routines, and I love engaging elementary-age children with homework help and age-appropriate activities that encourage learning and creativity. I believe in creating a safe, nurturing environment where children feel secure and happy while maintaining open communication with parents about their child's day.
